CBRD BBX - stock appearing turbo for evoX
Paging murlo and mlomker, initial results are in! This thing is rated at ~57lbs/min and AFAIK is 100% stock appearing (once the intake is on).
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v204/cbrd/CBRDBBX.jpg Can't wait to see more numbers out of this turbo. At the same time, I'm still kinda disappointed at how low of torque the EvoX stock frame turbos are making... http://forums.evolutionm.net/evo-x-d...-whp-peak.html Quote:

Direct before/after, similar boost, no tuning:

It'll be interesting to see what the feel is like afterward. As you've pointed out, the torque curves are very different and seemingly not in a good way.

Nah this looks good man! With some tuning I bet on that setup one could make nice even power with a peak closer to 360. Great numbers for pump gas and minimal mods!

Re: CBRD BBX - stock appearing turbo for evoX
Not too bad, the BBX has quite a bit more boost up top though, looks like around 5 more psi up top. That is how a lot of turbos make more power though, by being able to just hold boost. But around 4500 where the boosts like about the same, there looks to be good gains. A lot of guys going from already big turbos to bigger turbos fall into the trap thinking that running the same boost on their XXL turbo as they did on their XL turbo will make more power, when it often doesn't. To quote Robert from FP, "If you are carrying 5 gallons of water in a 10 gallon bucket, you dont need a bigger bucket."
The upgraded turbo Evo X dyno charts start looking a lot like VTEC power bands with their peaky power band though. |

Pump gas numbers!

Trust me, the world will give you plenty of reasons sooner or later ;) From the mountain of data I've seen from both, GST's reads damn close do DB's Dyno Dynamics in (in AWD mode at least), maybe about 2-3% higher.

Just sayin that stuff breaks or wears down with time or without it. My luck sucks, so I like to remind others about stuff I've broken so they can both be ready for it if their stuff breaks, or be thankful it's running good :)
